The studio

Born in Finland. Built for impact.

We help clients explore their adjacent possible — to uncover or invent value-generating products and patents that will fuel the businesses of the future.

The Exploratorium

Technology re-engineering & novel patent generation

We identify patents that can be re-applied in different or adjacent industries.

Re-engineering

Technology re-engineering

We understand existing ideas and technical solutions from patents, and reapply them where they have never been used.

Generation

Novel patent generation

We combine existing ideas with the latest industry trends and emerging technologies to invent what does not exist yet.

Origins

From five thousand to a studio.

The Adjacent Possible emerged from KIUAS, Finland's leading startup accelerator, and the inaugural 90 Day Finn program. Chosen from 5,000+ entrepreneurs, executives and technologists worldwide, we spent three months in the Nordics exploring new opportunities.

We've earned innovation grants from Business Finland and an award from EUSPA — backed by ESA — for Quasy Tech, a quantum-based system that tracks and predicts space debris in low-Earth orbit.

Our inventions have led to international patent filings and ventures including Aviogel (aerial firefighting) and Nearby X (physical-world search).
